The proof is in the puddin’

I heart Kaze sushi in Roscoe Village for many many reasons, but the main one may just be the asparagus pudding on the “dessert stylings” menu. Before you cringe at the idea of gelatinous vegetables, keep in mind that this savory pudding is actually more sweet, with only a tiny hint of fresh asparagus flavor and a flan-like texture. Then focus on the Hennessey cream-strawberry purée-chocolate syrup trifecta deliciously swirling around the plate and try not to sop it up with your sticky rice. 2032 W.
